“Your wedding dress is ready pumpkin” along with “I will be coming down Saturday to see you and the kids” were some of the messages that were sent to Brooke.

Mr. Mason was arrested in April of last year.

“I had been given a warning from the Home Office about him which really frightened me,” Brooke told Bromley Magistrates Court.

“The whole thing was just really worrying,” she continued. “Without having been told by the police to be vigilant I might not have been so worried about it.

“I don’t know what he’s capable of. I feel anxious about giving evidence.”

Mr. Mason was jailed for 26 weeks and was given a restraining order.
